The Mint Room
Few desserts remind me why I love running my cheesecake blog as much as this one. At The Mint Room in Frederick, I had the chance to try a cheesecake unlike anything I’ve encountered on my Cheesecake With Jake journey — a Gulab Jamun Cheesecake, blending one of India’s most beloved sweets with the familiar…

Tsunami Ramen & Tapas
Every so often, a cheesecake crosses my path that breaks entirely away from tradition — and at Tsunami in Frederick, that’s exactly what happened. After a great dinner here, I decided to try something completely new to the Cheesecake With Jake catalog: a Green Tea Cheesecake, paired with an array of vibrant toppings. For $8,…

Oscar’s Alehouse
If there’s one thing I’ve learned about Oscar’s Alehouse in Frederick, it’s this: they don’t miss. Whether it’s their entrées, their appetizers, or their craft beer selection, every visit leaves me impressed — and their house-baked original cheesecake continues that streak. Served on a clean, modern plate with a swoop of raspberry sauce for flair,…

Rib City
On my first visit to Florida, I stopped by Rib City—a local BBQ spot that almost qualifies as a chain by our standards, just two locations shy. Our waitress gave a glowing review of the raspberry cheesecake, saying, “I eat one almost every shift—it’s delicious!” Naturally, I had a bit of hope. Unfortunately, that faded…

Ropewalk
We made a celebratory visit to Ropewalk in Bethany Beach, marking both Father’s Day and a friend’s birthday with dinner near the water. The lively atmosphere, attentive service, and classic beach-town charm set the tone for a memorable evening. After enjoying a satisfying meal, it was only fitting to end on a sweet note—and for…

InJapan Japanese Steak, Seafood & Sushi
After a sunny day on the golf course, a few coworkers and I headed to InJapan in Easton, MD to celebrate my birthday. The plan was dinner, dessert, and then some friendly competition at the bowling alley next door. The energy inside the restaurant was lively, with our hibachi chef putting on a great show—flames,…

Memories Charcoal House
Memories Charcoal House may have an inviting name, but unfortunately, the memory of their cheesecake is one I wish I could erase. From the moment it was served, disappointment set in. Plated in a plain white circular glass bowl that was clearly too small for the slice, the presentation lacked any sense of effort or…

Bonefish Grill
We went out with a group of friends to celebrate a promotion of one of our own, and we decided to head over to Bonefish Grill, knowing that we could find a delicious cheesecake to rate. The plating of the cheesecake was simple yet elegant, served on a traditional circular white glass plate without any…

Silver Diner
As someone who loves cheesecake, I couldn’t resist trying the one at Silver Diner, a spot I’d never been to before. The cheesecake arrived on a traditional rounded square glass white plate with a decorative design of raspberry sauce. Although the sauce looked interesting, it didn’t extend to the cheesecake itself, which was a bit…

The Greene Turtle Sports Bar & Grille
I recently decided to stop in Green Turtle for dinner and, of course, to try their cheesecake. Unfortunately, the dinner was pretty bland, so my expectations for the cheesecake were already low. However, I was still disappointed with what I received. I’m almost conflicted on whether or not I should even give this a rating…
